Management options are often limited for patients with AML or high grade myelodysplasia (MDS) relapsing within a year of allogeneic transplantation. We report, in two such patients, the use of re-induction with FLAG-Ida chemotherapy, followed by the infusion of GCSF-mobilized blood stem cells from the same HLA-matched donor. Both patients achieved durable complete remissions with good quality of life and longer disease-free survival than after the first myeloablative allografts. This mini-allograft approach offers a practical, well-tolerated salvage and a potentially curative treatment for relapsed AML/high grade MDS patients failing a first conventional myeloablative allogeneic transplants.
